Our late founder, Mr James Teo – Started off as a Male Nurse in the School of Nursing, before becoming a Paramedic in the Singapore Civil Defence Force. During his time in the SCDF, he found his calling to share his knowledge and skills with those around him.
With that in mind, he founded Emergencies First Aid & Rescue Pte Ltd in 2002. During his time as Director of EFAR, he inspired countless individuals to expand and pursue their passion in healthcare.
James’ spirit and passion will always live on within EFAR – with the desire to share medical knowledge, skills and assistance to benefit those in need.

Co-Founder Doris Ching added to the building blocks of EFAR by supporting the operations and administrative matters. After the departure of James, Doris continued to strive towards the goal held by EFAR by slowly increasing the number of ambulances to meet the growing demand of medical transport, event coverage and also First Aid training services.
